The pain from my hand was numbed from the aching of my heart.
"Liz..... W-when you died....... I- I just couldn't t-take it any-anymore..... No....No twelve year old..... No twelve year old deserves to- to die like that.... like how you died...... And-and It's a-all m-my fault...... Y-you were supposed to be f-fifteen now..... a-and it's a-all my fault th-that you're n-not...." I sobbed.
Even though it has been three years, I can still hear her laughing. Then screaming. Then crying. Then until I can't hear anything anymore. It haunts me.
Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw a little girl kneeling over a grave. I wrapped my hand in tissue and walked over to her. She had naturally ombré hair, from brown to gold, and on the grave it said
Marie Stefany Holmes
1972-2011
Mother of a loving daughter and a wonderful wife. Marie will be dearly missed, and never forgotten. She will go down in history for her bravery and her life full of fighting. In war, and fighting cancer. Always in our hearts. Kevin and Celeste ❤
I crouched down to the girl-Celeste.
"You lost your mom?" I asked, crouching down next to her. Celeste nodded, a tear rolling down her face.
"W-who did you lose?" I took her hand and led her over to my family grave.
"My grandfather, grandmother, and my baby sister. She was t-twelve.."
"Oh.... h-how did she die?" I flashed her a look of anger, but then softened my gaze.
"It's all my fault........." I whispered.
"It's fine, if you're not ready yet. "
"How old are you.... Bianca?" she asked, looking at my name on Liz's headstone.
"I'm 17. You?"
"I'm 13. Turning 14 this year."
"You're a year younger than my sister.... can I keep you?" Then I shook my head and laughed. "Oh who am I kidding? Your dad'll miss you."
"No actually..... my dad..... he.... he committed suicide three months after my mom died. His grave is next to hers...." Celeste whispered.
"Well, I have both my parents, but they pretty much disowned me. They don't wanna see me anymore. I remind them too much of Liz.... I get it though. They don't have to love me, ya know? It was hard letting them go though..... Cause Lizzie was the glue that held us together. When she went, we just fell apart."
"Yeah, I get it..... Mom.... she-she held us together. And I-I never really realized how much I loved her until she went. Then my dad. I thought.... I thought that we would be okay together. But we both fell apart. I kept it in and he wouldn't talk." Celeste said, sighing.
"So, do you.... do you live on your own?"
"Yeah, why? The state knows my problem and pays all the expenses lile food and water. The only down side is all the looks that the clerks give you when a kid hands them a state card, ya know?"
"Yeah..... so I was..... this is crazy, but um.. I was wondering if you would like to stay with me? We could share clothes, and go shopping, and do eachothers nails and makeup and hair-"
"So you want me to do the things with you that you couldn't do with your sister?"
I nodded slowly.
"You kinda look like her. The eyes. She had light purple eyes cause we're albanians, but uh.... she had really deep eyes. They looked wise. They were really alert, and.... and it was like..... like she was looking inside you. She would be able to tell what you were feeling...... just by taking one glance at your eyes."
Celseste nodded her head towards a group of boys standing off to the side.
"We should get out of here..." Celeste siad scaredily.
"And what's the fun in that?" I said amd smiled. That smiled soon turned into a grim line when I saw a tuft of blomde emitting from one boys' hood.
I angrily marched up to him and ripped off his jood.
"What so you think you're doing here?" I said angrily, causing Niall to jump.
"And you." I said, pointing at Liam.
"You should've kept these jerks asay from me Daddy Direction." I growled, and pulled off his sunglasses.
Celeste walked up behind me.
"You know them?" She asked.
"Who's she? Your sister or something?" Harry asked, nonchalantly.
"Yeah, you mentioned her name at Nandos. What was it Lou?"
"Elizabeth?"
"No, it can't be man, her gr--"
Celeste grabbed my fist before it touched any of them.
"Don't you dare go around with false information sweety, because you will regret it." I growled.
"So it's true than? Elizabeth is de-"
"SHUT UP!!" I screamed and grabbed his arm, digging my nails into his arm. The pain in my hand became increasingly unbearable.
I could hear her. She is screaming. Just like that night....
"Speak one more word, and you will-"
"Bianca, what are you doing?" Celeste asked.
"Remember, one more word, and I'm not sure you'll remember anything. But of course, I won't do the dirty work. I'll have some...... friends do it for me." I growled, and Celeste grabbed my arm, pulling me away.
